MEDITECH
Long Term Care Clinicals
product brief

MEDITECH offers comprehensive financial, administrative, and clinical features to facilitate a full continuum of service for extended care patients and residents. Our Long Term Care products are well integrated to maximize the exchange of information between applications. This extensive real-time integration minimizes the time required to enter crucial patient information and eliminates duplication of effort throughout the care continuum.

Our Long Term Care Clinicals product includes a comprehensive and fully compliant Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI) with many features to assist with the intensive RAI process. Our clinical software also streamlines information, from initial ordering and verifying of results to daily resident charting. All data is immediately available within a single automated chart. The system provides flexibility to tailor care providers' access to confidential data, residents, locations, and panel items within the Enterprise Medical Record.
